One of the top juniors in Mississippi has been out of action so far this season. Tupelo's Ashton Shumpert suffered a stress fracture in his lower leg during the Golden Waves jamboree.

The 6-foot-2, 205-pounder is currently rehabbing and hopes to be back on the field by the time Tupelo reaches district play. BulldogBlitz caught up with Shumpert to get an update on his recovery as well as his early recruitment.
